About this map

Mary Minerva Mc Croskey Memorial State Park dominates the high ridge terrain along the boundary of Latah and Benewah Counties in northern Idaho. This mid-1990s record details a landscape of managed timberlands and indigenous heritage, where the southern reaches of the Coeur d'Alene Indian Reservation meet the vast St Joe National Forest. The map traces the intricate headwaters of the Palouse river system, including Sheep Creek, King Creek, and Deep Creek.

Notable landmarks like Mission Mountain and Huckleberry Mountain define the skyline, while smaller details reveal the area's working life. A Gravel Pit and Quarry indicate local resource extraction, and the small settlement at Mtn Home sits near the junction of Cedar Creek and Lone Jack Creek. The survey illustrates the network of forest roads and trails that traverse the steep drainages of the North Fork and South Fork of Pine Creek.
